POW 2 POW!
POW to Precarious Organisational Work
Key academics show how psychological science is expanding knowledge of the impact and consequences of precarious work on workers, organisations and societies.
The accelerating cost of living crisis has resulted in increased visibility of precarious work not only by academics seeking to understand it, but also in the media across the world.
In May 2024, the EAWOP impact incubator brought together key academics in the field of psychological science to discuss the impact and consequences of precarious work on workers, organisations and societies.
The event, Understanding Precarious Work, featured five short talks as part of EAWOPii’s new campaign “POW 2 POW”.
The topic is seeing increased attention from policymakers and organisations looking to understand how to prevent citizens and workers from shifting into precarity.
These five talks can be viewed on EAWOPii’s YouTube channel and the slideshow and accompanying five leaflets can be downloaded below.
